Ferrari recently introduced its newest luxury ride at Pebble Beach, showcasing the 488 Pista Spider in all its glory. Only the 50th convertible model in Ferrari history, the concept car boasts 710 horsepower, granting the ability to hit approximately 211 MPH at its highest speeds. The 488 Pista Spider’s 3,036 lb weight is relatively light when compared to similar supercars, made possible by a simplified chassis and plenty of carbon fiber. 20-inch diamond-finished alloy wheels can be swapped for lighter carbon fiber options at the owner’s discretion, while a new lateral control system — dubbed the Ferrari Dynamic Enhancer — ensures the smoothest ride possible regardless of wheel choice.

The Italian carmaker has yet to announce whether the 488 Pista Spider will enter production, so stay tuned for updates.

Elsewhere at Pebble Beach, BMW introduced its Z4 M40i Roadster First Edition.
